Twenty years ago, Mr . and Mrs . Old Bill created a new vehicle for fundraising that inspired all of us to enrich the community by investing in local nonprofits . In spite of its name, Old Bill’s Fun Run is full of youthful energy, and its 20th anniversary broke all WELCOME previous records . Combined with matching funds donated by Mr . and Mrs . Old Bill and 62 other Co-Challengers, Old Bill’s 2016 raised over $12 .1 million . Participating nonprofits received matching grants equating to 55% of the first $30,000 they raised themselves . Over the past 20 years, Old Bill's Fun Run has raised more than $133 million because of one couple’s visionary initiative . In 2016, one out of every three households participated in this grassroots fundraiser where the median gift size is $250 . At the Community Foundation, we help donors fulfill their visions by simplifying their giving and providing guidance about critical issues in our community . By prudently stewarding resources, offering flexible charitable giving options and opportunities to create lasting legacies in our valley, the Foundation helps Jackson Hole address future needs as well as current problems . We support nonprofits by providing essential funding through competitive and capacity-building grants and by offering technical assistance and professional development . Mr . and Mrs . Old Bill did not settle for merely revising old solutions . They continue to inspire us to search for new and innovative ways to invest in our community and enrich our lives through philanthropic leadership .

(2) Karl Weber IN MEMORIAM “You get old and you realize there are no answers, just stories.” –Garrison Keeler Karl Weber knew a good idea when he came across it . In the late 1960s, he created an all-steel merchandising panel in his garage and went on to patent four of his own inventions . In 1970, Karl founded Uniweb Inc ., and later co-founded Aerochem Inc ., which milled metal for the aircraft and aerospace industries and helped reduce the weight of space shuttles . To make nature a bigger part of their kids’ lives, Karl and his wife, Tina, headed to Jackson, where Karl began fishing, duck hunting and hiking . He knew immediately that the move to Jackson was brilliant and became part-owner of Lost Creek Ranch . Karl’s love of business blended with his love of the outdoors, and Lost Creek Ranch became a successful dude ranch where guests could experience the Wild West . In 1987, Karl and Tina came across a unique property along the Gros Ventre River and founded the Gros Ventre River Ranch . Karl thoroughly enjoyed his role as host to the great outdoors and general purveyor of fun . Among his family and friends, Karl was famous for his storytelling and his collection of antique Fords . An avid reader and card player, he relished when he got to “Shoot the Moon” in a game of Hearts . In 2000, Gros Ventre River Ranch became the first business Co-Challenger for Old Bill’s Fun Run . Originally Bronze Level participants, Karl and Tina increased their donation to Gold in 2014 and have continued as Gold Co-Challengers through the Karl and Tina Weber Charitable Fund . Karl is also a member of the Community Foundation’s Legacy Society . We will remember Karl for his “Karl-isms” and his wonderful laugh . Rendezvous Park's Jarad Spackman Memorial (3) CAROL & PETER COXHEAD Carol: There was an energy and excitement about moving to Jackson when I arrived in 1989.

    Wyoming Public Media Issues Report for 4th Quarter of 2019 Prepared by Bob Beck ISSUE: Politics Topic: The Bureau of Land Management is moving more staff--and perhaps most significantly--its headquarters to the Mountain West. Depending on who you talk to, this will either make the BLM more efficient, or give preferential treatment to the fossil fuel industry. Noah Glick reports. Time: 4 min Date: 10/4/19 at 3pm and 10/6/19 at noon Topic: This week Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney rebuked President Trump’s strategy - or lack there of - in Syria.

Topic: For years, Sheridan has debated whether or not it should employ a city administrator to handle day-to-day operations for the city. In July, the City Council passed an ordinance that updates a previous law that established the job. That new law has been challenged by a citizen petition, bringing the city to a special election on the topic. Wyoming Public Radio's Bob Beck spoke with Northeast reporter Catherine Wheeler to learn more about the election. Time: 6 min Date: 11/1/19 at 3pm and 11/1/19 at noon. Topic: Wyoming senior Senator Mike Enzi may be retiring, but that doesn’t mean he’s relaxing in Washington these days. This week the Budget Committee that he chairs passed a historic, bipartisan proposal to reform how the entire federal government spends money, as Correspondent Matt Laslo reports from Washington.
